I would get a gig of ram, that would help alot. Corsair Valueselect is only like 80$ for a gig. Power Supplies from cases also are not that good, especially if it's from a 30 dollar case.
 Last of all get the 7600GT for a video card instead, same price but better. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130062

I would select a different motherboard and spend the additional money on memory on RAM and a better PSU.
